Report: Coulter under investigation

Report: Coulter under investigation

The Daily News reports today that Connecticut’s Elections Enforcement Commission is investigating right-wing author and provocateur Ann Coulter to determine if she violated election law by voting in Connecticut while living in New York City.

The News notes that Coulter's voting issues were first raised on WebOfDeception.com, a site run by private eye Joe Culligan, with a complaint filed by Coulterwatch.com blogger Dan Borchers.

Celebrity side dish: Ann Coulter under investigation
Updated Sunday, February 8th 2009, 12:14 PM

Ann Coulter is being probed. Following our Jan. 11 column, Connecticut’s Elections Enforcement Commission is making a “thorough investigation” of whether the conservative pundit broke the law by voting in the Nutmeg State while living in New York City, according to a commission spokeswoman.
Officials are responding to a formal complaint filed by Coulterwatch.com blogger Dan Borchers. “For over 10 years, Ann Coulter has gotten away with illegal, immoral and unethical behavior, ranging from plagiarism to defamation, perjury to voter fraud,” claims the conservative Borchers. Coulter declined to comment, but in the past has branded Borchers a stalker. He says the FBI has determined he poses no threat.

30. Yes it is actually.
She was accused of voting in Palm Beach while living in Miami. Once a fraud, always a fraud.

3. I thought she voted in Florida? In the wrong precinct based on address
but they didn't prosecute. Now she's voted in CT while living in NYC? how could she have voted in FL also?

4. Don't get your hopes up again
Connecticut has a Republican governor who I'm sure will find a way to make this all go away. That and whatever expensive uptown lawyer she hires.

9. I don't think so...
http://www.ontheissues.org/Jodi_Rell.htm

Connecticut's "Republican" governor has her head screwed on better than some Democrats we're forced to put up with. She's got to know Ann Coulter is an embarrassment to their party, and she's got the power to shut her down for a while.

The expensive uptown lawyer might be a problem, but I don't think Jodi Rell will be.

12. LIAR
YEARS AGO I FACT CHECKED HER COMMENTS.

117 LIES(intent to deceive) on 155 pages
61 lies on 62 pages of her one page comments on JWR.org

55 LIES on 95 pages of book HI SLIMES

95 pages all I could stomach.

not close to Mush Dimbaugh
over 10,000 LIES on 4000 hours of his transcripts

EDIT BY FAIR.ORG
extrapolation by this writer

Sean Hannity trying to outdo Dimbaugh

BRING BACK FAIRNESS DOCTRINE TO STOP THIS JUNK IN A SO CALLED CHRISTIAN NATION

16. I don't care how many times a lie is repeated. To me it will always be a lie.
I don't understand the world of Republican's. Seems like a world of excuses to me.

18. what should be under investigation is the fact that
she can call for her zombies to talk to me with a baseball bat, and call for non-christians to be "perfected", and so on, and still get on national media. WTF? Why is she still booked, and why the apparent green light for conservative spew masters to say anything, anything at all that would result in censorship for all others, ESPECIALLY those with a liberal bent.

thats what needs to be investigated.

23. She could slip between the bars and escape.
And "probing" her physically would be like playing the old game "pick-up sticks."

22. Now, now...Don't be so fast to condemn.
After all, she has recently determined that all poverty is caused by single moms. You have to admit, that's a real breakthrough.:sarcasm:

28. Last I heard she was registered to vote in Palm Beach County FL
and according to the records I checked lives a few hundred yards (i.e. a few houses over in her neighborhood) from Rush Limbaugh.

Book'er Danno!

:rofl:

29. Ann Coulter is determined to vote early and often
Travelling to Florida, Connecticut and NYC to vote shows real determination to do her civic duty as thoroughly as possible. I wonder if there are other states involved...
